简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between physical activity levels, dietary patterns with fat oxidation at rest in normal lean individuals and those with overweight and obese.
详细描述
Obesity is associated with a changing food environment where low-cost, high-energy-dense fast foods are readily available, and physical activity levels are decreasing. Additionally, metabolic flexibility, defined as the organisms ability to switch between metabolic fuels, is impaired in obesity and is known to play a significant role in the development of chronic diseases. In these disease states, a metabolically inflexible condition is typically characterized by a reduced ability to regulate fat oxidation during fasting and carbohydrate oxidation during satiety. Therefore, considering the rising trend in obesity, understanding the factors related to metabolic flexibility becomes critical. It is known that numerous factors such as diet composition, eating habits, physical activity level, and sedentary behavior affect metabolic flexibility. However, unlike dietary and exercise interventions, the number of studies examining the impact of individuals eating habits and physical activity levels on resting fat oxidation is limited, and this topic has not yet been researched in obese individuals.
Moreover, another important concept known to have adverse effects on metabolic health independently of physical inactivity is sedentary behavior. Sedentary behavior is defined as "activities that require low energy expenditure while sitting, reclining, or lying down." However, the extent to which daily sedentary time and interruptions of this time with physical activities affect resting fat oxidation, an important variable of metabolic health, is not known.
In this context, the aim of this study is to comparatively determine the relationship between physical activity levels, sedentary behaviors, habitual diet, and resting fat oxidation in normal-weight and overweight/obese women. A total of 118 healthy women aged 25-50 years (normal weight, n=60; body mass index (BMI) = 18.5 - 24.9 kg/m²) and overweight/obese (n=60; BMI = 25.0 - 34.9 kg/m²) will participate in this study. All participants' body composition and resting metabolic rate measurements will be conducted, and fat and carbohydrate oxidation will be determined. The dietary habits, 4-day physical activity levels, and sedentary behaviors of all participants will be assessed using appropriate measurement methods.
The findings of this project are expected to reveal the extent to which dietary habits, physical activity, and sedentary behavior throughout the day affect resting fat oxidation in overweight/obese and normal-weight individuals. These findings will provide important evidence on how dietary habits and sedentary behaviors can improve resting fat oxidation, an important indicator of metabolic flexibility, without the need for dietary and exercise interventions

Resting fat oxidation
时间窗: From July 2024 to October 2024
In order to determine the relationship of dietary habits and habitual physical activity levels with resting fat oxidation in healthy overweight, obese and normal weight individuals, resting fat oxidation measurements will be performed with a indirect calorimetry (Cardio Pulmonary Exercise Testing, Quark CPET, Italy).All resting fat oxidation tests will be conducted in the same quiet room under a controlled ambient temperature (22-24 °C) and humidity (35-45%). Subjects will be instructed to arrive at the laboratory at 8 a.m. by car or by bus (avoiding any physical activity after waking up) and having fasted for at least 10-12 hours. In addition to this, they will be advised to avoid any moderate physical activity for the 24 h before the test day or any vigorous intensity exercise in the prior 48 h.
The relationship between habitual physical activity level and sedentary behaviour with resting fat oxidation
时间窗: July 2024- October 2024
Participants' habitual physical activity and sedentary behaviour will be measured with an accelerometer (Actigraph, USA) for 4 consecutive days to determine the relationship with resting fat oxidation.
Dietary pattern and fat oxidation
时间窗: July 2024- October 2024
In order to determine the relationship of macronutrient intake and food group consumption with resting fat oxidation, 4-day food consumption records will be obtained from the participants.
